REV'IT! is supporting four riders in two disciplines for 2022 season

DENVER, COLO. (March 31, 2022) — REV’IT! is approaching this year's Progressive American Flat Track and Auto Parts 4 Less MotoAmerica championships with a renewed focus on riders competing in professional motorcycle racing at the national level. Both series kicked off in March, with the Volusia Half-Mile at Volusia Speedway Park in Barberville, Florida, and the 80th running of the Daytona 200 at nearby Daytona International Speedway.

REV’IT! is supporting Johnny Lewis in AFT Mission Production Twins, Danilo Petrucci and PJ Jacobsen in Medallia MotoAmerica Superbike, and Gene Buonomo in MotoAmerica Stock 1000. All four riders are contesting their respective disciplines and classes in Tech-Air-compatible REV’IT! one-piece leather racing suits, with the addition of a combination of in-house-developed, CE-certified SEEFLEX, SEESOFT, and SEESMART protection.

Lewis, Petrucci, and Jacobsen are outfitted in custom-tailored REV’IT! suits. Buonomo is wearing the production-ready Scorpio, a direct descendant of the suit that Petrucci wore to MotoGP race wins in Italy and France. Petrucci, Jacobsen, and Buonomo will don the top-of-the-line Jerez 3 gloves; depending on the type of venue — half-mile, mile, short track, or TT — Lewis will use either the Jerez 3 or the short-gauntlet Metric gloves.

• Pennsylvania-born Johnny Lewis has led the Royal Enfield charge in American Flat Track. Not only has Lewis helped develop the air-cooled, 648cc-based twin-cylinder motorcycle — this year running under the Moto Anatomy Powered by Royal Enfield banner — but he also has won two main events in the AFT Mission Production Twins class, most recently the 2021 Lima Half-Mile. When he is not racing, the 32-year-old father of two teaches the Florida riding school he founded, Moto Anatomy.

• In January, Danilo Petrucci traded his knee sliders for a roadbook. After a decade in MotoGP, where he earned 10 podiums, including two wins, the 31-year-old Italian wowed Dakar Rally competitors and fans alike with a stunning victory in the fifth stage of the grueling off-road endurance event. Now, Petrucci will focus on the Medallia MotoAmerica Superbike class with Warhorse HSBK Racing Ducati New York. He is campaigning a Ducati Panigale V4 R in the 10-round championship.

• PJ Jacobsen also is racing in MotoAmerica’s premier class, albeit with a different team, the new Tytlers Cycle Racing, on a BMW M 1000 RR. The 28-year-old New Yorker has raced at the highest level in production-bike competition and finished second overall in the 2015 FIM Supersport World Championship. Returning to the U.S., Jacobsen contested a limited 2019 schedule in AFT Twins before moving to MotoAmerica Stock 1000, winning the opening round of the 2020 series.

• Three-time American Sportbike Racing Association GTU Team Challenge Champion Gene Buonomo will race a Generosa Motorsports Kawasaki ZX-10R in Stock 1000, pitting him against many of the best riders in the nation. In March, the 47-year-old New Jersey resident attempted to qualify for the Daytona 200, which for the first time in the history of the series launched the MotoAmerica season. Unfortunately, Buonomo’s Yamaha YZF-R6 suffered a mechanical failure, and he missed the race.
